In case you missed it:
he ladies came dressed in all black. Except for Jennifer Aydin. Very apropos of the group considering the show’s trajectory. Our gracious hostess were Dolores Catania and Jennifer Fessler. Teresa shows up late (on par) and immediately targets Margaret as she’s placed across from her at the table. Once Teresa is seated in the no splash zone, the drama begins.
Danielle Cabral and Jennifer Aydin start the chain reaction of chaos. Both Danielle and Jen threw low blows in reference to their fight earlier in the season. What made the conversation turn violent was Jennifer alluding to Nate having “boobs” and Danielle having “brawn.”
Jen Aydin and Danielle getting physical resulted in Jennifer Fessler exiting her party stage left.
In Teresa’s attempt to calm down the fight between Danielle and Jennifer Aydin, Melissa uses this as an opportunity to side swipe Teresa. Melissa’s outburst seemed aggressive given Teresa’s attempt to diffuse the situation.
To me, this read as a last ditch effort on Melissa’s part to antagonize Teresa. Truthfully, it *kind of* worked. Teresa calls Melissa a “wh-re” only after Melissa slings “white trash” her sister-in-laws direction.
Teresa was not buying anything that Margaret was selling. Understandably so. She went the entire season thinking Margaret was the source of all the drama between Louie and his ex. From her perspective, I get why she was so insistent on questioning Margaret’s culpability.
However, the bomb that Teresa thought she was dropping by way of Jim Leonard came at the hand of Margaret Josephs. Teresa, “subpoenaed the wrong bitch.”
Margaret reveals Jackie Goldschneider actually was in contact with Louie’s ex. I don’t quite believe that Marge only communicated with the ex 3 times. However, none of that seems to matter with a Jackie-sized smoking gun.
Is Jackie Goldschneider the Monica Garcia of RHONJ? Lets be clear, I don’t find Marge to be without fault, but in a way, she is vindicated. The episode concludes no better than it starts. No resolve is made, and tensions are higher than ever. I doubt we’ll get any closer during next week’s watch party as the ladies watch the finale in separate camps.
